Here's the diagram:
 Here's the back story by the lady who created it. Long, but well worth the read. http://www.allgeneralizationsarefalse.c ... the-chart/ I've used this chart to help figure out what's BS and what's generally reliable. Now when I roll my eyes back into my head so hard they clatter when one of you guys cite stuff from the bottom tier, you'll know why. |

That "chart" has liberal bias in itself. Centering CNN is just the start of it. ABC/NPR etc are pretty much in the Democrat pocket. Look how they covered Obama. Nothing but furry softballs at best. Fox will cover actual true things, the others (purposely?) omit. The sin of omission is pretty nasty.

Have you guys read the associated article that she wrote about her methodology? She specifically addresses her own biases and how she tried to account for them, and her agreement that some of the placements could be adjusted, but that wasn't her intent. Her intent was to create an easily digestible chart that gives people a place to start when they're questioning the veracity of the news from various sources. If you haven't read the article, you're missing some good analysis.

News flash. This chart is garbage.
NPR, BBC, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS and the others in the "center" are totally in the tank liberal. Don't believe me go watch a montoge of the 2016 election. 100% of the commenators on all those "center" "news" medias looked like they were going to throw up when Trump was winning. Shift everything over left about 2-4 columns. In the last few years, and this year especially, I basically stopped watching the news and only get a few pieces here and there and view it all with deep skepticism. I'd say about 95% is liberal propaghana with only a few honest brokers like Tucker Carlson. As for "news" I'd put infowars as propaganda like the others but without the long-term credibility of a CNN or CBS. These latter ones are just as bad, but they have an "aire" of credibility among the masses. delliottg wrote: Here's the diagram: Here's the back story by the lady who created it.

Agree that the chart is garbage. The article is garbage too as the author ignores the huge leaks about those media businesses and their DNC contacts and connections in 2016.
NYT and WAPO gave the Hillary campaign veto power over stories. Anyone who claims they are neutral is ignoring this. _________________ If you vote for Biden you are voting to be murdered when he sends Beto to come take your "semi automatic assault weapon" (any semi auto). If you have family or friends voting for Biden show them this and ask if they are willing to vote for your murder or maybe even their own if they are gun owners or live with any. https://nypost.com/2020/03/03/joe-biden ... n-control/ Quote: “I want to make something clear, I’m going to guarantee you this is not the last you’ve seen of him (Beto),” Biden said Monday evening during a campaign rally in Dallas. “You’re (Beto) going to take care of the gun problem with me.
